MRC Super Brain Battery Chargers

Cutting-edge Technology for the Life of Your Battery.

Patented Micropeak Technology... for NiCd and NiMH

For more than a decade, MRC’s Super Brain series has been driving genuine innovation by pushing the limits of charger technology. It started with U.S. Patent # 6,218,808 B1 for Micro Peak Technology. Engineered for NiCd and NiMh batteries, Micro Peak eliminates false peaks by recognizing a full charge with astounding accuracy. Batteries last longer, stay cooler and deliver increased run time.
